Fieldrunners 2 Game Info

 
Fieldrunners 2 is the sequel to the hit tower defense game for iOS. The new game has been ported to the PC and in a very nice fashion. This is a common trend happening with popular iOS titles. Many of the PC ports work well in terms of gameplay. While you can see how the touch controls fit in with how the game plays, the game may feel a bit small in comparison to PC exclusive games. Fieldrunners 2 however, seems like a game that belongs on the PC.

In Fieldrunners 2 you will use a variety of towers and items to defend your base from an onslaught of enemies. Games will last anywhere from 5-10 minutes due to the large amount of waves per game. They average out at about 70 waves rather than the standard 10. On occasion there is a bonus round with a tough miniboss you can KO for extra points and an achievement.


Fieldrunners 2 offers 25 levels with 4 different zones and backgrounds. Players are going to choose at most 6 types of weapon and 3 types of consumptive item at the start of each level. Fieldrunners 2 also offers 3 levels of difficulty for players, which are casual, tough, and heroic modes. Just like any other tower defense game, players then pick a tower and slap it down on the map, wait for enemies to start to falling, and earn more cash to build more towers.

Players lose the game when the amount of escaped enemies reaches 20. If players win, the game will give players 1 star (for casual mode), 2 stars (for tough mode), or 3 stars (for heroic mode). Players can choose to continue playing in the endless mode after passing each level. No matter players pass the level or not, the game will give players a certain amount of coins according to players’ performance. Players can use earned coins and stars to buy more powerful towers.

Fieldrunners 2 offers 25 types of weapon, and 5 types of items. Each of them has distinct range, effect, and weakness.
